Vali clicked her tongue. It didn't come as a surprise to her at all that Kintar had shielded her from Nigerra's Territory instead of warping her and Maxim out like everyone else. From the little she'd seen of the Mage, she was far from a saint.
'She wants us make good on our resolve, huh?' she thought, her navy-blue hair whipping about with the tempo of the Genuine Divine energy billowing all around her. Vali was all for it.
Maxim's will, on the other hand, was weathering.
"I don't… I don't think I can do this." She was panting, her hands on her knees.
Vali turned to her. "You said you could. I thought we were in this together."
Maxim shook her head. "No. I'm not trying to give up. It's just… My powers are wearing off."
Vali frowned.
'So, it's already time?'
